Sorry Society


I can't be perfect you see 

I don't have the key 

of all the things I could be

I just want to be me

I can't impress you

You judge me like I'm new

They all judge me to

at whatever I do

I came to school to learn 

and get each credit I earn

but you judge me when I turn 

and it hurts like a burn

I'm really not okay

because you hurt me everyday

and you don't listen to what i say

not even a simple "hey" 

You make me want to cry 

to the point my tears won't dry

I can't even try

I feel like I will just die

Please stop judging me 

I just want to be free

I'm not who you want me to be 

I'm sorry society.
